MAKE PE AT SCHOOL EXCITING AND FUN

Scarred by the trauma of gym classes as a girl, Becky Pugh welcomes a broader curriculum

The news that schools are now offering yoga, Pilates* and street dancing in addition toteam games such as rugby, football and cricket is sure to have traditionalists up in arms.

What will become of children never exposed to the character-building horrors of rugby

practice in the rain? What kind of adults will they become without the elegance and discipline

instilled by gymnastics? Can you really call yourself a man without a keen eye for an offside

trap?

Well, I think Ofsteds* discoveries are heartening. The education watchdogs report on the

state of physical education in schools today hits the nail on the head: The rich variety of

extra-curricular programmes enabled most students to discover something they liked and

wanted to carry on with into adulthood.

I, for one, am still scarred by the trauma of PE at school. I remain allergic to any form of

exercise. Ive tried the gym, swimming, yoga, running in the park, and have even attempted aBritish Military Fitness session. But I cant elicit the smallest amount of pleasure from any of

them.

Im convinced that Id have been happier at school, and fitter now, if our games lessons

had felt more like fun. Indeed, one of the paradoxes of my school days was that I was

regularly reprimanded for attending lessons in tracksuit bottoms and a cotton shirt, but loathed

every minute of physical activity.

In fact, the only time I ever enjoyed exercise at school was when they began to offer

improbably progressive-sounding jazz dancing classes to the sixth form. To the strains of

pop music, we laboured over moves that we believed might come in useful at the nightclubs

we were just starting to enjoy. It wasnt painful, it wasnt scary and it wasnt embarrassing.

Happily, the result of introducing these newfangled alternatives to the curriculum is a boostin pupils enthusiasm for exercise. In a world with ever-fewer playing fields, where physical

activity is threatened by the allure of the internet, the TV and computer games, we should be

delighted if a child can be bothered to perfect their karate kicks, not outraged that theyll

never know how to play cricket.(The Daily Telegraph)

SHELF LIFE

Simon Parke was a priest in the Church of England for 20 years then he gave it up to work

in a supermarket, where he stacked shelves and worked on the tills. (0) _________

My cousin, Bob, tells me that a supermarket is the place where you always meet the

person you least want to meet in the world and he has a lot to choose from. He claims hesforever ducking in and out of the aisles, like a soldier in a war zone, seeking cover where he

can find it. (10) _________ .And as he says, You particularly dont want to meet that former teacher, because either

theyll struggle to remember you, which is embarrassing, or they will remember you, which is

again embarrassing, or theyll ask you how things are going now, which is embarrassing in a

new way. (11) _________ .I hadnt fully appreciated the angst created by ex-teachers in supermarkets. Its hardly

their fault, of course. They imagine theyre just nipping in to grab a cheesecake or some

grapes. Little do they know that, all around them, former pupils are cowering by the

cauliflowers. (12) _________ .

My main problem as a priest, though, was recognising people but not knowing why. Sowhen I meet somebody, Id be wondering: have I buried their mum? Baptised their daughter?

Or heard their confession of adultery? This can make for a tricky opening few seconds of

conversation. (13) _________ .There are those worse off than Bob, however. After all, if he walks into the store and

discovers the person he least wants to meet in the world well, he can always walk out. But

what of the poor so-and-so who has that person as a colleague? (14) _________ .Where ultimate power now lies, is hard to tell. Garry is still the manager, but Pauline is a

rival and really getting on our nerves. (15) _________ .

E) This is not shouting! I know what shouting is and this isnt it.

F) If its not the old girlfriend by the sandwiches, or an ex-band-member

by the fish, its a former teacher taking ages to choose a dessert.

G) What on earth is going on here?

H) Bob thinks there should be specially designated supermarkets for

former teachers, leaving safety zones where people like him can shop

freely.

I) Thats how it is with Garry, my boss at the supermarket, and our new

THE MERRY WIVES OF SITCOM

Jasper Rees meets the director who is introducing Shakespeare toFawlty Towers

Exactly how funny is The Merry Wives of Windsor in the 21st century? With Christopher

Luscombe as director, this months new production at Shakespeares Globe is likely to be

very funny indeed. Two summers ago Luscombe had a popular hit at the same theatre with a

Comedy of Errorsproduction inspired by the Carry Onfilms. For this fresh attempt to make

the more difficult parts of Shakespearean comedy accessible to a modern audience, his

reference point is sitcom.

The Merry Wives of Windsor feels very conversational, very relaxed, he says. It seems

to me to be written absolutely as people spoke. But I was scared of using the sitcom tag until I

read this very authoritative academic article comparing Merry Wives with Fawlty Towers.

There are so many connections. John Cleesemust have been familiar with it.

It is often claimed that The Merry Wives of Windsor came about as a result of a royalrequest. The queen, having enjoyed Falstaffs visits to the Boars Head tavern in Henry IV

part one, wanted to befurther entertained by the fat knight, and Shakespeare dutifully bashed

out his only play set in contemporary England.

The first question for Luscombe to answer was which version of the play to stage. A

Quarto edition was cobbled together by actors in 1604, the more reliable Folio published in

1623. The traditional approach is to work from the Folio, but Luscombe has chosen to marry

the two. There is no version that Shakespeare saw through to publication. You have to do

what you feel he would approve of. I feel hed say whatever works, particularly in a play

like this. Its no great poetry. All Im trying to do is make 400-year-old material really funny.

Task 4

SHUT UP AND CALCULATE!

YOU ARE HERE: A Portable History of the Universeby Christopher Potter

For the past 20 years or so, popular-science books have attempted to explain to an incredulous

public the latest theories put forward by scientists to explain mystifying stuff such as quarks,

various types of subatomic particles, black holes, and so on. Reading these books you

occasionally note a tone of slight impatience from the author when the really tricky stuff

comes along. Look, you dummies, it just is, ok?

Or, as Christopher Potter repeatedly puts it in this elegant and thoughtfully constructed

contribution to the genre: Shut up and calculate! Even Feynman, a brilliant Nobel prize-

winning scientist, who tried to get the message across a generation ago in Six Easy Pieces,

struggled; not all of those pieces are that easy, to be honest.

Potters book works because he is not (quite) a physicist, but nor is he merely a layman. He

is a publisher with a fairly modest (he suggests) academic background in mathematics and thehistory of science. And this is the root of the books brilliance: Potter becomes a link between

the bizarre world of the quantum physicists and our own rather more limited imaginations.

He makes complicated numbers comprehensible by taking us from the world we know and

recognise everything around us for ten metres, for example, from the size of a giraffe to the

size of a human being in stages down to things so small that size has no real meaning, and

upwards to distances that, without his guidance, would seem so great as to be meaningless.

The distances and the scale become comprehensible.

Potter takes us beyond the realms of the solar system, past our nearest neighbouring star

(four light years away), beyond the outer boundaries of our galaxy, the Milky Way, until, near

the end, we hit a solid supercluster of galaxies one billion light years away. And then, a little

later, we are dragged through ever-diminishing stages back down to the quarks, which are atthe very boundary of what we might call both size and reality.

This is the most thoughtful pop science book of the last few years, and, along with The

Oxford Book of Modern Science Writing, the most useful to the layman.

Welcome to the Listening component of the Matura Examination.

The listening material and the instructions are recorded on this CD, and the tasks and

instructions are printed in your test booklet.

There will be three tasks, and every recording will be played twice.

The tasks will begin with some music, and then you can hear (and you can also read) the

instructions to the task.

This will be followed by a silent period on the CD in order to give you some time to look

at the task in your test booklet before hearing the text.

Then we will play the recording in one piece.

After another short silent period we will play the recording for the second time, but now in

shorter sections and with breaks between the sections in order to give you enough time to

write down your answers.

You will also have some time to check your work at the end of each task.

Please note that the first item in each task (marked with a tick []) is always an example.

The whole test is about 30 minutes long.

Good luck!

Task B

You found the following letter on an internet forum called Equal Opportunities:

My 12-year-old brother has been invited to celebrate a

classmates birthday at a go-kart circuit. The friends parents

will provide snacks and drinks, but the guests must pay their

own entrance fee if they want to take part. There are four

children in our family and, although my little brother is dying

to go, my parents cant afford such an expensive outing.

Ive been thinking about this invitation for a while and I

wonder if its ethical and if theres anything I could do.
